What Beginner Biology Teacher Candidate know Genetics and Gene?

Abstract

Misconceptions as barrier to understanding biology hence, to promote meaningful learning, it is necessary to overcome these difficulties with the heIp of different instructional methods rather than traditional instructional methods.  Therefore it could be very intersting find out  “how students prior knowledge genetic effect genetic knowledge of pupils during class education?”The preliminary investigations have been shown that usually the students have some difficulties in understanding the microscopic level genetic topics: such as the fertilization process and its products, the genetic variation, the mitotic cell cycle and the meiotic cell cycle. The findings of this study have been shown that students mostly have fragmented basic genetic knowledge at the beginning of teachinh process. They have basic understanding of DNA, genes and chromosomes, but lack detail. It could be intersting to work out if students’ prioviously knowledge about genetics concepts education could effect their knowledge in genetics permanently.
